i know bill clinton, and i like bill clinton and yes, i admit it on national tv. she sh he showed us last night what a political comeback looks like. he was marginalized and he went from the first black president to being accused of being a racist. and the guy who marginalized him had to call him back to the rescue, and he did it in fine clintonesque form. he was didactic and funny and lengthy, but he was very, very good. >> dana, tell me about the moment when you know it was a surprise to the audience, but we got a head's up that the president was in the hall and taking the stage, but the moment when you saw him come out, and clinton bowed to him. and he bowed to him before he hugged him and that is a passing of the torch moment. >> wasn't that amazing? bill clinton did a interview before the speech and said it is not a bromance or anything, but it looked like it with that hug. and you covered the fight in 2008 from cover to cover, anna, and you nknow about the tension between the two of them, and we all do, but we also, anybody who has covered bill clinton and w

bill clinton, nothing beats having a former president to affirm you, especially a guy like bill clinton who's a walking advertisement for a strong economy. >> why is he doing it? >> you know, i think part of it is that his legacy is, in a sense, tied to barack obama's. a lot of what barack obama is saying is let's go back to the clinton rates on taxes. there's an affirmation on him getting reelected. and then, of course, they did bring their two sort of political power house families together with the hiring of hillary clinton. into the cabinet of barack obama. if you want to take the most cynical view of it, if hillary clinton wants to run in 2016, what better way to serve that up and set that up. >> we've got some huge loyalty. some markers are going to be able to be able to be called in on this deal. look, i think president clinton not only has he done the job for president obama, but the work that he's doing for on the downed ballot is just amazing. do you think he can swing some races. >> i think absolutely. if you look at where i'm seeing him pop it into my inbox. you know, small

bill clinton said it at an event i was at, bill dean said it. tax rates need to go up, not just on other people, i.e. wealthy people, but all people. here's bill clinton. >> i think you could tax me at 100% and you wouldn't balance the budget. we are all going to have to contribute to this. and if middle class people's wages were going up again and we had some growth in the economy, i don't think they would object to going back to the tax rates that i obtained when i was president. >> do americans need to realize that taxes are going to go up and on everyone? >> i think they do, but let's be honest and faithful to an economic theory which basically says it's the lower and middle income groups that basically spend most of the money. so if you do raise taxes on middle income americans, you're going to see some economic effect in terms of slower growth. so do i disagree with bill clinton to some extent? yes, i think i do. i think the bulk of the taxation has to come through capital gains taxes, has to come through dividend taxes in terms of increas

bill clinton led that. you know in his heart and in his mind he has major disagreements in the way the president has responded in 1994. he will suppress all that and do his best as he did four years ago to deliver a ringing endorsement that will make a convincing case against mitt romney but with bill clinton you can't be sure. >> two things, i think. first of all. they've had trouble with this, they have to answer the question that mitt romney raised, are you better off than four years ago? they are struggling with that. its hard question to answer because a lot of statistics on unemployment and debt and growth aren't very good. the second thing i think is not the comparison to mitt romney the comparison to barack obama in 2008. it was such a magic convention. i re-read obama's speech when he accepted it and big football stadium with the greek columns. it was impressive speech but it was all hope and change and fresh face on the political scene. he is not there anymore and it will be much harder. >> bret:

this administration has learned from the experience of bill clinton who spent the last year of his presidency trying to arrange a deal, that, you know, it's a long shot and it's a bit of a crap shoot. you have now palestine, the state that we think will be one day palestine, divided into two basically warring halves. the west bank under the moderate leadership of abbas and gaza under hamas. it's hard to blame the obama administration on one hand for disengaging from the problem because there's no chance of near term success. on the other hand, you're exactly -- now because of where we are, hillary clinton has to run from her asia pivot, literally from asia back to the middle east just to kind of patch this together temporarily. >> and let's talk about hamas. the u.s. has no relationship with hamas, neither do our european partners, the so-called quartet. hamas is often confused because of its iranian background and sponsorship of hezbollah. talk about the two terrorist groups and the differences. >> sure. hezbollah, based principally in lebanon, backed by the syrian regime and also by iran, h
